Zlatan Ibrahimovic announces Manchester United return with 'greatest tweet'

Nobody does it like Zlatan Ibrahimovic. The Swede confirmed his return to Manchester United with a typically epic message on twitter.

The striker, who will take the number ten shirt at Old Trafford, announced the deal with a tweet simply saying "I UNITED it @ManUtd." The tweet shows him arm wrestling with the devil dressed as a Jesus-like figure.

Ibrahimovic was released by Manchester United after rupturing knee ligaments in Manchester United's Europa League quarter-final with Anderlecht. But the 35-year-old has made good progress in rehabilitation and has now put pen to paper on a new one-year deal.

Manchester United have since released a video showing Ibrahimovic donning the number ten jersey for the first time. "I am back to finish what I started," said Ibrahimovic in a club statement released on Thursday.

Ibrahimovic was United's top goalscorer last season, scoring 27 times in all competitions before injury cut his season short in April.

Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho said he was 'delighted' to have him back.
